I was playing with the tag search and it occurred to me that, what with all this 3D printing malarkey, it might be good if there was a single database (or even a simple table) of the approximate dimensions of the various BH and FB rails available to modellers in all the usual scales. I only have 00 SMP BH and some H0 US FB but I can take a shot at starting it if anyone thinks it worthwhile.

Hi Andy,
In principle it is a good idea. Some posts ( on the old forum ) did contain at least partial information of this type. What do you call the 'usual scales' and assuming you are talking 2,3,4,7 and 10mm scale are you also including rail intended for narrow gauge? There are already some useful tables knocking about for that but it would be good to have the info all together.

Start the ball rolling and see what happens. Happy to add any sizes of rail I have to hand.
